Ex-Packer barred from school after Christmas play incident

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — A judge has imposed a four-year restraining order against former Green Bay Packer Kabeer Gbaja-Biamila following an incident last month in which he allegedly sent two armed men to a Christmas pageant for a school that his children attend.

Gbaja-Biamila was inducted into the Packers Hall of Fame in 2013 for his 74 1/2 sacks during a four-year career. He now professes membership in the Straitway Truth Ministry, a group that identifies itself as a Hebrew Israelite church and doesn’t celebrate Christmas.

Friday’s hearing before Brown County Court Commissioner Phoebe Mix was to determine if he and two of his religious followers should be legally enjoined against setting foot on the property at Providence Academy or bothering its headmaster, Ron Jung, the Green Bay Press-Gazette reported Saturday.
